How Common Are Golf Cart Accidents?

Researchers studied golf cart injuries in 2008. They found that 147,696 Americans were treated in emergency departments for golf cart-related injuries from 1990 to 2006. This represents 8,688 Americans per year. Children were 31.2% of the cases. Soft tissue damage was the most common type of injury. It was present in 47.7% of cases. 7.8% of cases required hospitalization.

The most common reason for injury was falling from a golf cart. This occurred in 38.3% of cases. Falling greatly increased the risk of head injury, neck injury and concussion. 70.3% of the injuries happened at sports facilities. 15.2% of the injuries happened on public property or streets. 14.5% of the injuries happened around a farm or home. Injuries which happened on a street were more likely to result in concussion or hospitalization. Injuries increased steadily in each year. There was a 132.3% increase in injuries over the entire study period.

What Are Laws For Golf Cart Operation In California?

Golf cart registration is not required for use on roads that allow golf cart use within one mile of a golf course. Golf carts may not be used on roads with speed limits over 25 mph except by ordinance or local authority resolution. Gasoline-powered carts must bear a California emissions requirements compliance label.

Golf carts driven on the road in California must be equipped with:

  • A headlamp, tail lamp and stop lamp.
  • A rear reflector and a horn.
  • Front/rear turn signals and front/side reflectors.
  • A mirror providing a 200 foot rear view.
  • Windshield wipers, fenders and a safety-glazed windshield.
